Mendel crossed pea plants that had yellow-round seeds with plants that had green-wrinkled seeds. The first generation produced plants with all yellow-round seeds. Self crossing of these plants produced the following F2 phenotypes:

Yellow-Round Yellow-wrinkled Green-round Green-wrinkled
Count 315 101 108 32

The expected phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1

1. What are the null and alternate hypotheses for the chi-square goodness of fit test?

2. What are the expected counts under the null hypothesis?

3. Determine a chi-square test statistic and P value

4. Do you accept or reject the null?

You are Gregor Mendel. You have 2 pea plants, one that grew from a green seed, the other that grew from a yellow seed. The parents of both plants were previously highly inbred so that each of your plants is homozygous at all genetic loci. You cross the 2 plants; the seeds that develop from the cross are the F1 generation. You count the seeds and compare the number of green seeds with the number of yellow seeds. Question 1:...

A true-breeding strain of peas with round seeds and a true-breeding strain of peas with wrinkled seeds are crossed. Their offspring (F1) are allowed to self-fertilize and produce an F2 generation.   Round pea seeds (F2) were planted and produced mature plants with flowers. The pollen from these plants was collected and used to fertilize plants from the true-breeding wrinkled strain. a) what proportion of these progeny is expected to have wrinkled seeds? b) what proportion of these progeny are expected...
